Kalmanash

by Cory Poulson

When the heathen god Kalmanash unleashes his unnaturally strong warriors on the Four Kingdoms, the only people who see him coming are the reclusive and mistrusted sorcerers of Anqaar. But even if they find someone who will believe them, their warning may not be enough to stop the oncoming darkness.

Plucky fantasy that exists to have a good time


To be perfectly honest, I didn't love this book. But I sure did enjoy it well enough and all its good romp of and tribute to fantasy. Though that ironically may be why I didn't love it. Despite a fairly simple and classic "kill the baddie!" plot, there's a lot going on and a lot of characters, so many I felt I was prevented from getting to know everyone and keeping track of everything that it kept me from fully enjoying the story.

But I also admit some may like that. When I said tribute to fantasy, I meant it. We got fairies, elves, demons, necromancers, shape shifters... Really, all of it. And it's quite fun that way. The action doesn't let up, so it's an easy, exciting read in that regard.

So not the greatest fantasy you'll ever read, but enjoyable just the same, if you can keep track of everything.

It's really long but very captivating.
